TOPOLOGICALLY STATIONARY LOCALLY COMPACT SEMIGROUP AND AMENABILITY

Authors: not saved
Abstract:

In this paper, we investigate the concept of topological stationary for locally compact semigroups. In [4], T. Mitchell proved that a semigroup S is right stationary if and only if m(S) has a left Invariant mean. In this case, the set of values ?(f) where ? runs over all left invariant means on m(S) coincides with the set of constants in the weak* closed convex hull of right translates of f. The main purpose of this paper is to prove a topological analogue (which is also a generalization) of this theorem for locally compact semigroups.

topologically stationary locally compact semigroup and amenability

in this paper, we investigate the concept of topological stationary for locally compact semigroups. in [4], t. mitchell proved that a semigroup s is right stationary if and only if m(s) has a left invariant mean. in this case, the set of values ?(f) where ? runs over all left invariant means on m(s) coincides with the set of constants in the weak* closed convex hull of right translates of f. th...

The Characterizations of Extreme Amenability of Locally Compact Semigroups

Let S be a locally compact Hausdorff semigroup such that its multiplication is separately continuous. We denote by m S the Banach algebra under the supremum norm of all bounded real-valued functions on S. For a topological semigroup S, let BM S and CB S be the closed subalgebras ofm S consisting of all Borel measurable functions and all continuous functions on S, respectively. Let C0 S be the s...

Module Amenability for Semigroup Algebras

We extend the concept of amenability of a Banach algebra A to the case that there is an extra A -module structure on A, and show that when S is an inverse semigroup with subsemigroup E of idempotents, then A = l(S) as a Banach module over A= l(E) is module amenable iff S is amenable. When S is a discrete group, l(E) = C and this is just the celebrated Johnson’s theorem.

Locally Compact Topologically Nil and Monocompact PI-rings

In this note we shall investigate a topological version of the problem of Kurosh: “Is any algebraic algebra locally finite?” Kaplansky’s theorem concerning the local nilpotence of nil PI-algebras is well-known. We will prove a generalization of Kaplansky’s theorem to the class of locally compact rings. We use in the proof a theorem of A. I. Shirshov [8] concerning the height of a finitely gener...

Semigroup C*-algebras and Amenability of Semigroups

We construct reduced and full semigroup C*-algebras for left cancellative semigroups. Our new construction covers particular cases already considered by A. Nica and also Toeplitz algebras attached to rings of integers in number fields due to J. Cuntz. Moreover, we show how (left) amenability of semigroups can be expressed in terms of these semigroup C*-algebras in analogy to the group case.

Pseudo-amenability of Brandt semigroup algebras

The concept of amenability for Banach algebras was introduced by Johnson in 1972 [6]. Several modifications of this notion, such as approximate amenability and pseudo-amenability, were introduced in [2] and [4]. In the current paper we investigate the pseudo-amenability of Brandt semigroup algebras. It was shown in [2] and [4] that for the group algebra L(G), amenability, approximate amenabilit...
